Dreamy Tips from the 10 Most Popular Bedroom Photos of 2016
Singapore Houzzers’ favourite bedroom photos from this year offer ideas for sleep spaces big and small
How are Singapore homeowners looking to change things up in their bedrooms in 2017? We noticed two common design concepts: bespoke space-saving solutions, and tone-on-tone tranquility. Simply put, you want a clutter-free, serene space to rest in. Here’s a closer look at these ideas, measured by the number of Singapore Houzzers who have saved bedroom photos to their Houzz ideabooks in 2016.

2. Escape the city in your own urban log cabin
The recycled wood-panelled (you can use veneer or laminate to replicate the effect!) headboard-divider is complemented by a faux fireplace for that cosy, log cabin look. Built-in bedside tables and pendant lamps are a thoughtful touch, providing the owners all they need for bedtime within easy reach.

4. Customise a small but stylish solution
A built-in platform bed, with storage and study desk, built over the bay window, maximises the space in this small bedroom. The Scandinavian-inspired colours of white-and-wood lightens up the bulkiness of the built-in.

5. Make it moody
This colour scheme is darker than the other favourites on this list, but it’s also a monochromatic one that’s given more interest by a layering of textures. Shiny, silky textures make up for the darker colours by being reflective and luxurious-looking.
